Description
A triple-decker club sandwich featuring crispy bacon, deli turkey, fresh lettuce, and tomatoes on toasted sourdough or white bread, griddled to golden perfection for maximum crunch and flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
- 9 slices Sourdough or Thick-Cut White Bread
- 6–8 strips Thick-Cut Bacon
- 6–8 slices Deli Turkey Breast
- 1/4 cup Full-fat Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dijon Mustard
- 4–6 leaves Romaine or Iceberg Lettuce
- 1 large Ripe Tomato
- 4–6 slices Refried or Dill Pickles
- 2 tablespoons Butter, softened
- Salt and Black Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Wash and dry lettuce thoroughly. Slice tomatoes into 1/4-inch rounds, pat dry with paper towels, and season lightly with salt and pepper. Slice pickles if whole. Prepare turkey, mayo, and mustard.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Cook bacon strips in a single layer for 3-4 minutes per side until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and cool completely.
- Toast bread slices until golden brown and firm. Let cool slightly.
- Mix mayonnaise and Dijon mustard in a small bowl. Spread a thin, even layer on one side of each bread slice.
- Assemble the triple-decker sandwich: On the bottom slice, layer turkey, lettuce, tomatoes, and bacon. Top with the second slice of toast. Repeat layers (mayo, turkey, lettuce, tomato, bacon) and top with the third slice.
- Insert toothpicks into each corner to secure layers. Melt butter in the skillet over medium heat. Place sandwich halves (cut diagonally) into the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
- Remove from heat, let rest for a minute, remove toothpicks, and serve immediately.
Notes
Ensure all ingredients, especially lettuce and tomatoes, are completely dry to prevent sogginess. Let bacon cool completely before assembling to maintain bread crispness. Use day-old bread for better toasting results. For gluten-free, use certified gluten-free bread. For low-carb, use lettuce wraps or tortillas.
